Michelle Klettke
About
I have over two decades of experience and exclusively trained under only top level professionals in the industry. Currently available to travel to your farm to teach lessons for those who own their own horse. My students have won championships in hunters, jumpers, and equitation and my own show experience has taken me from short stirrup, to junior hunters, big eq, and high jr/am jumpers. I also have always cross trained with dressage. My specialty lies in creating lesson plans that develop riders' confidence as well as programs for development of the equine athlete with excellent success rates in rehabbing from injury to full work and starting young horses. Whether you are just beginning or looking to take your riding to the next level, I'm dedicated to working with you!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I work with each student individually to meet them at the level they are at. My methods are completely customized to your goals or your horse's training. Typical lessons are 1 hour.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Over two decades riding under top professionals, majority of show experience on the A circuit, 10 years as a groom/manager/assistant trainer to learn the business from a hands on perspective from the ground up before opening my own operation
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Please contact for pricing and rates. Packages of lessons are available. Beginner lessons and haul-ins offered in Tampa but available to travel to your farm in Pinellas & Hillsborough
How did you get started teaching?
I've always wanted to be a teacher and I enjoy the puzzle that is figuring out each student or horses learning style to help them adapt to the lessons. I purposely studied under many trainers so that my "tool box" is full of language, exercises, and techniques to help each client succeed.
